System: AMD Athalon 600MHz

When booting the bootnet.img for 6.1, the following message appears:
initrd loads fine then it issues a message stating that:

Boot failed: please change disks and press any key to continue.

It would appear that vmlinuz is missing.

You should remake your boot disk, as there is a problem with the
diskette itself.
